Here fox and rabbit say "good night"
The distinction between large and small Karrendorf was made after the Second World War, when a settlement for new farmers was built 1.5 km west of the old village, which received the place name Klein Karrendorf. When Karrendorf is mentioned in the following, what was later referred to as Groß Karrendorf up to 1945 is meant.

Groß Karrendorf was first mentioned in 1301 as de Kerndorp. In 1313 the place name was changed to Karrendorf. At that time the village belonged to the Slawestorpe family. Karrendorf later became the property of the Slavic principality of Rügen. On October 28, 1322 Wizlaw III. von Rügen the Gut Karrendorf as a donation to the Greifswald hospitals for the Holy Spirit and St. George[6]. Farming was always practiced in Karrendorf, for 1670 four farmers and eight Kossats were given. In 1788, six farmers leased their farms from the city of Greifswald, which meanwhile managed the hospital assets. In 1805 the Karrendorf schoolhouse was built. Several farms burned down, probably due to arson, so that in 1828 there were only four large farms left. According to the 1910 census, the Karrendorf estate district had 103 inhabitants. In 1934, the city of Greifswald concluded an exchange agreement with the University of Greifswald, with which Karrendorf went to the university in exchange for Ladebow.

As part of the land reform, the estate was dissolved in 1945 and the agricultural land was given to new farmers. The demolition material from the Brook manor was also used for the construction of the new courtyards. The resulting new settlement was called Klein Karrendorf, while the old village was called Groß Karrendorf in the future. Since Karrendorf has always been at risk of flooding, the flood protection system "Schöpfwerk Ryck-Ziese Karrendorf" was built east of Groß Karrendorf in 1959 and the 3000 m long dike Leist I - Karrendorf was renewed in 1966. In 1970 a causeway was built to the neighboring island of Koos, which was replaced by a bridge after reunification. Link: de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mesekenhagen
